Title:
SACH Feet AND AK'S
Text:
Colleagues,
I make a concerted effort to NOT give SACH feet to AK's and to convince our
rehab clinic that it is inappropriate.
Am I right, or is there a theoretical justification for giving Sach feet?
I am speaking of optimal gait,safety, and ease for the patient.
I prefer a foot that allows for significant plantarflexion and smooth
dorsiflexion roll over.
